Joe Budden will be taking the stage for the first time with his all new supergroup Slaughterhouse tomorrow night (Jan. 22) and the New Jersey native’s new label, Amalgam Digital, will be airing the event live on the net for fans who can’t make it.
The group, which along with Budden consists of indie acts Royce da 5′9″, Joell Ortiz, and Crooked I, will be rocking the stage and the Web at 8 p.m. The performance is set to go down at New York City’s S.O.B.’s and will be streamed online on www.AmalgamDigital.com/TV.
Amalgam is acknowledged as being hip-hop’s first digital retailer and record label. They also streamed Budden’s first-ever, live in-studio webcast, which enabled him to interact with fans while completing his impending album Padded Room, scheduled for release in February.
In related news Budden recently made headlines after putting out a diss track aimed at New York rapper Saigon. Since then the two have carried on as an unrelenting game of verbal ping-pong, with Sai releasing the response song, “Under-Acheiver.” Days ago Budden threw the latest blow with his rebuttal “Pain in his Life.” “You a rapper or a body-builder?/ I’ll have ‘em in the E.R. with the doc trying to put him back together like a body-builder,” he spit.
With Saigon’s reputation fans wonder if he plans on attending the show. Sai-gitty got into a altercation with Mobb Deep rapper Prodigy on the same stage in ‘07– which incidentally was the subject matter that birthed the beef between Sai and Budden in the first place. – Azza Gallab

Gotta love how all the hype for “slaughterhouse” in the beginning was the four underground artists pulling together from all over to form this supergroup.
Now, they’re know as “Joe Budden & Slaughterhouse”. Hahaha. Niggas is like “Harold Melvin & the Bluenotes” n shit.
If Sai’s a true bully, he’ll be there, bcuz he has to kno that he’s losin the battle severely. That kinda shit can be unsettlin to those who operate on intimidation & overcompensate with violence.
& btw, there was a “supergroup” quite some years ago, called WestCoast Slaughterhouse; Ice Cube, WC, & Mack 10. Just a lil info for the youth.

I don’t doubt that @ all. I was just making a statement.
Never was there a comparison of the crews. In fact, it was @ the bottom of the page after I said a few things prior. That wasn’t random. I constructed my comment specifically in that order so the two facts wouldn’t seem to coincide with one another.
Just a point regarding the name “Slaughterhouse”. Random hip hop trivia & such.

Actually, sir, they had a song called Westcoast slaughterhouse long before they were signed to a deal as westside connection. Then they changed the name to Westside connection. The name WS was around the time Dub C released West-Up. I don’t sound stupid. & I’m far from an idiot, so before u get all Internet gangsta, do some research. U don’t even live out here, Idaho is barely a state.

It’s funny how rap shits like WWE, you get these little fake beefs and then all of a sudden the they have tours or upcoming events that just happened to be at the peak of their beef attention.
That said the group sounds good, minus Joe, he got some lyrics but that flow and voice are below average at best.

I’m lookin forward to the collaboration, bcuz altho all them dudes get shine solo, each style will give another aspect on the next, & so forth. Niggas gonna be like some hip hop gumbo.
I just hope they don’t do every song with all four of them on it. That may get a lil too tenacious.

Idk Jhon, he might be there to prove to that what he said was dead serious. “Next time I see Joe Budden, I’m gonna beat him up”.
Not to mention the “box cutter” comment.
God forbid, the last thing that hip hop needs right now is MORE violence.

Don’t sleep on Crooked. He gotta lil fame out here in Cali, dude is with the business if need be.
I really don’t see Sai showin up tho, that’s overkill (no pun intended). Unneccesary, to say the least.

I have to agree with the comments about it being just ‘Slaughterhouse’ not Joe Budden & Slaughterhouse.
However what they’ve done here isn’t too bad. The emphasis is made on Joe Budden because it is HIS label that will be airing the show live, so it’s not actually as bad as it seems.

I tell cats what, if these two dudes don’t use all this momentum building & apply it to their careers (read: Albums droppin), wow, that would be a term so over-used on this site, an “Epic Fail”.
These niggas gettin super publicity right now. Fuck who’s winnin, I aint in it, but if it was real beef, only a fool wouldn’t capitalize. Seriously, every man on these boards has had to back down to sumn @ some point in life. It aint that hard. To back down, AND make paper, gtfoh.
Take the battles nationwide. Niggas would buy mad tix to see them freestyle head to head, promoters could make a whole affair behind it. Some nigga out there who’s already in the industry is already peepin what I’m sayin. Watch him get paid, while I’m typing. Blah!

TG$…..yeah, these cats should capitalize off of this shit, but what’s really going on is a bunch of fuckin Stans rooting for their “favorite”. Whoever’s music they like, that’s who they’re sayin is winning this battle. I think Joey has the lyrics, but Sai does too he just gets too personal. However, all the jail and ex-jail niggas are pullin for Saigon off dat shit alone. Like some brotherhood shit. I like Joe cause he seems “smarter”. On the real though, the only way these niggas can impress me is if they get in the ring on some UFC shit!!! Then it will be over. Fuck it, both drop an album the same day and see who sells the most or they need to put up their dickbeaters and move on with their fuckin lives………Peace
